The Four Pillars of National Honor Society

Scholarship: Scholarship is characterized by a commitment to learning. A student is willing to

spend the necessary time to cultivate his/ her mind in the quest for knowledge. This pillar can

only be achieved through diligence and effort. Scholarship means always doing the best work

possible, regardless of impending reward.

Service: The pillar of service can be reached in a variety of ways. The willingness to work for the

benefit of those in need without compensation or recognition of any kind is a quality that is

essential in NHS members. As a service club, the National Honor Society is highly concerned with

giving its all to the school and community at large.

Leadership: Leaders take the initiative to aid others in a wholesome manner throughout their

daily activities. Leaders sacrifice their personal interests in order to yield to the needs of others.

Leaders need wisdom and self-confidence to affect change in all aspects of their lives. Some

examples of leadership can include, but are not limited to, leading group activities in the

classroom and in the community, being an officer in a club, being a primary member of the band

or choir, or being the captain of a sports team.

Character: Character is what distinguishes one individual from another. It is the product of

constant striving to make the right choices day after day. Students with good character

demonstrate respect, responsibility, trustworthiness, fairness, caring, and citizenship in all of

their actions.
